Baptism is the external washing with water and the internal washing away of sin by
God.
Baptism is being unified with Christ in his death, burial and resurrection.
Baptism is how and when we come into contact with the blood of Christ.
Baptism is when the old dies and the new arises. In this manner we become saved.
Baptism is when we stop living for ourselves and start living for Jesus.
Baptism is how and when we scripturally make a conscious decision to dedicate our
lives to Christ.
Baptism is the gavel striking the bench proclaiming forgiveness of sins, the end
of the old and the birth of the new.
Baptism is required to gain the spirit. John 3:5 Baptism is for the forgiveness of
sins. Acts 2:38 Baptism now saves us. 1 Peter 3:21 Baptism is by faith. Mark 16:16
Baptism washes away our sins. Acts 22:16 Baptism gives us new life. Romans 6:1-6
Baptism puts on Christ. Galatians 3:27 Baptism believes in the operation of God.
Colossians 2:12 Baptism is similar to the Israelites coming up out of the land of
slavery, passing through the Red Sea and entering the Promised Land. Baptism can
be likened to passing through the flood of Noah. Baptism is about leaving our old
sinful, worldly ways behind and taking upon our shoulders the yoke of Christ. It
is about lifestyle change and dying to ourselves and doing God’s will instead of
ours. Our reason and purpose for living changes after baptism. Afterward is a new
way of life. Baptism is about heart, faith, total commitment, surrender, self-
denial, death, resurrection, repentance, and seeking God’s mercy through Jesus
Christ; and the work he did on that cross at Calvary over 2000 years ago.
